“If it meets the king’s approval, he should personally issue a royal decree. Let it be recorded in the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it cannot be revoked: Vashti is not to enter King Ahasuerus’s presence, and her royal position is to be given to another woman who is more worthy than she.

“You produce new witnesses[fn] against me

and multiply your anger toward me.

Hardships assault me, wave after wave.[fn]

Only grant these two things to me, God,

His anger burns against me,

and he regards me as one of his enemies.

Would he prosecute me forcefully?

No, he would certainly pay attention to me.

They die suddenly in the middle of the night;

people shudder, then pass away.

but diligent hands bring riches.

I’ll repay the man for what he has done.”

For the LORD will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim.

He will rise in wrath, as at the Valley of Gibeon,

to do his work, his unexpected work,

and to perform his task, his unfamiliar task.
